Rays released RHP Will Inman.

Inman signed a minor league contract with the Rays in November 2012 and then went on to post a 6.47 ERA in 32 innings this season at Triple-A Durham. The 26-year-old right-hander will try to find a new organization. Mon, Jul 1, 2013 03:08:00 PM

Will Inman pitched seven scoreless innings and struck out seven Sunday for Double-A San Antonio.

It's surprising that Inman is still in Double-A after going 9-8 with a 3.52 ERA for San Antonio last year. He's 4-1 with a 3.05 ERA, 33 H and 36/8 K/BB in 44 1/3 innings this year, so it's clearly time for a promotion to the PCL. He should be a candidate for San Diego's rotation after the All-Star break.

Desmond Jennings (knee) began a minor league rehab assignment with Triple-A Durham on Friday, going 0-for-3 with a strikeout.

He also drew a pair of walks in the contest. Jennings is working his way back from arthroscopic knee surgery and is expected to rejoin the Rays in early August. If all goes well in his first few rehab games, expect to see him with the big league club next weekend.

Rays placed OF Steven Souza on the 15-disabled list with a fractured left hand.

Souza left Saturday's game after getting hit by a pitch from Joe Kelly. It didn't look good and his X-rays confirmed the worst. The 26-year-old has shown above power this season with 15 homers in 308 at-bats. Brandon Guyer and Grady Sizemore should see more playing time in his absence. The Rays are probably wishing they had kept David DeJesus, who was traded to the Angels earlier this week.

Drew Smyly was hit hard in his first minor league rehab start with Triple-A Durham on Sunday, allowing four runs on three hits over 2 1/3 innings.

Smyly also issued a pair of walks in the contest while striking out three. The good news is that he made it through the start without any issues physically. He'll need at least another 2-3 starts to build up his stamina before he's an option to rejoin the Rays rotation.

Rays manager Kevin Cash said that everything went well. Cobb's season is over and he'll likely be sidelined until around midseason next year. The Rays were counting on big things out of Cobb and Drew Smyly this season, so they are really going to be missed.
